In his latest wildlife book for children, Steve Bloom travels from the North to the South Poles, taking photographs and finding out how polar animals-- polar bears, whales, penguins, seals, and other creatures--survive in the harsh climate. He photographs their daily lives and habits: how they grow up, hunt, find shelter, and raise their families. His dramatic and engaging photographs, presented as a visual journal, bring the subject to life for children. At the front of the book is a map of polar-animal locations, while at the back there is a brief section explaining how Bloom takes photographs of animals in the wild. Children will also find helpful tips on taking their own photographs of animals at home.
